2021-2022 NBA Season

[DJ Fieri]

He hasn't played since 2015.

Yeah, odd to list an NFL player in NBA voting.

When does Jarrett Allen get mentioned as injury prone?

Played in just 51 and 56 games the last 2 seasons since he made it to Cleveland.

 

[shopson67]

Would his price tag be a factor though...?

Just kinda curious...

Whose price tag? A current assistant coach? Unlikely.

 

[thunderc]

Just saying that should cost the team draft picks. It makes a mockery of the league, intentionally putting inferior talent on the court with the intent to lose. The OKC franchise should be renamed the Generals.

He said nothing wrong, he is going to do his job in spite of what anyone might think.

Played 63 games last year in a 72 game season. Missing under 10 games isnt the end of the world

Price factoring into which head coach to hire...

He confirmed that his team is trying to lose; tanking. With all of the concern over tanking for draft picks, openly admitting it should be a problem.

Sure, but my suggested target was Cassell.

He most certainly did not confirm that. All he said was that the Thunder are not going all in to win 40 games. It’s called player development.

That stuff only happens to the Sixers. And the penalty isn’t draft picks. The penalty is Adam Silver telling your ownership that they have to hire old man Colangelo as a consultant to drive the GM out so that Colangelo can use nepotism to promote his son and then proceed to fuck up the franchise long term.

That is lazy ass voting if that's why you chose Smart

Are you coming around now on me bitching about these awards and the way they do them? Lazy ass shit birds vote based on hype and narratives. She was hell bent on using her vote to make a philosophical statement about perimeter defenders getting more love. Da fuq? This is how we will end up with a 1st team NBA two years in a row without the MVP runner up. NBA media fucking blows and shouldn’t be involved in these things which go into establishing contract standards and players’ legacies. It’s fucking dumb.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

This is the most complaining I can ever recall about player awards.

Like I said before when the Pistons were good I just wanted to see wins when it mattered.

Isiah getting the Olympics snub is the only time I can recall caring.

Sam would be a dope to take that job. Nobody is winning with that mess on the roster. This would be his first head coaching gig. When you fall short on a LeBron team the narrative becomes that it’s everybody else’s fault. Spo seems to be the only coach LeBron didn’t get fired.

Have you not read any of my post yesterday about DPOY? Lol

It’s because of three functions.
1) This shit is 24/7 now so the talk doesn’t stop
2) They’ve made a mockery of the process
3) There is no Jordan in the league (one guy light years above the rest) and there are tons of great players doing great things.

I did. That’s why I said what I said. It seems like you’re coming around to what I’ve been harping about for weeks.

Thanks for reminding me of the LeClown factor. Yeah, that is something that definitely might deter me from taking the job...

The Lakers job right now reminds me of the Nebraska job in college football. It’s a train wreck. The roster is just a mess. And yet the fanbase is programmed with expectation to compete and win titles. They aren’t doing that anymore. They got that ring on the LeBron acquisition but it’s over now. Whoever takes that job is in a no win situation.

Yeah, it really killed Lue's career. Lebron gets coaches to the finals. Lue got a job post-Lebron. Mike Brown got a job post-Lebron (and may be in the mix again for the Lakers). Walton was crap and still got immediately signed by the Kings after being fired by the Lakers.

There is hardly a roster currently to be a mess. You have Lebron, AD, and a soon to be traded Westbrook. If that becomes Lebron, AD, Hield, Brogdon and a new assortment of vet min deals (and THT, Reaves, etc) that you can help to choose and assemble, is that a mess? Hardly.
